These things happen, and the next few games will determine the overall success of our competition. The Soccer AM catchphrase of ‘Bouncebackability’ springs to mind, and it is exactly that which we will need to continue to strive towards progression through to the knockout stages.

Having looked into the T20 tables for the last number of seasons, it seems that eight wins is generally enough to guarantee that you go through to a quarter-final, while nine wins and above should see you net the brilliant prize of a home tie.

This is still a long way off, with a lot of tough games to come, but sitting with four wins from six games I believe the goal of a home quarter is well within our reach.

Imagine the atmosphere at the FCG if we were to secure that, the place would be electric!

While on the topic of crowds, the first two home games have seen an amazing turnout to support the boys.

Personally enjoying the game as a spectator, it has been amazing to soak up the atmosphere and support on offer. I can only imagine what it must be like out in the middle.

Take it from me, as a squad we really appreciate the support, not only at home games but also the devoted section of fans that get on the road and travel the length and width of the country to watch the Foxes in action.

Tonight we have a mouth-watering fixture at the FCG when we host a Durham team reeling at the bottom of the table but with a strong team yet to fire.
